[ozmidwifery] Home birth in the UK

2006-03-24 Thread Debbie Slater








You
might be interested in this circular that has just come out of the Nursing and
Midwifery Council in the UK.



http://www.nmc-uk.org/aFrameDisplay.aspx?DocumentID=1446



There
are some lovely quotes:



Midwives are experts in normal birth and the NMC's
standards require them to be competent to support women to give birth normally
in a variety of settings including in the home.



Withdrawal
of a home birth service is no less significant than withdrawal of services for
hospital birth



Research
over the last couple of decades suggests that home birth is as least as safe as
hospital-based birth for healthy women with normal pregnancies.

2006-03-24 Thread Donna Houghton



Hi,
I am a Student Midwife at Gosford Hospital, I was 
wondering if there are any independent midwives on the Central 
Coast
I would love to see a Home birth, and also a home 
water birth.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Hi 
Donna,
I 
don't believe there are any actually practicing up here, but I do know a Central 
Coast friend who wanted a home water birth and found someone to do it. I will 
forward your email to her and see if she can come up witha contact for 
you.
